We have been consulting in the United Kingdom since 1988 and during this time we have worked with some of the most innovative companies around, companies known for the quality of their development of their people. Below are a few of the companies where we have run programmes and helped people:
AstraZeneca, Bible Society, bp, BT, Ernst & Young, Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer, GlaxoSmithKline, ICI, J.P. Morgan, LloydsTSB, UBS,
O2, Vodafone, PwC.
We have also worked with a number of leading charities, including Oxfam, CRAC and Bible Society.
However, by far the most important feedback for us is the feedback* we get from the people we work with:
“SIMAŽ identifies your skill base, interests and motivation, so you can be more active in managing the boundaries. It gives you a vocabulary for understanding yourself. It is a more sophisticated way of managing your career.”
“It came at an interesting point in my career, where I wanted more clarity about my abilities, so the next step would be in the right direction. It is a finer tool than others I have known. It fitted in with what I wanted”
“I found the process refreshing and began to see patterns myself. It is not a passive process. It’s very engaging and makes you into an active participant. It gives you a new way of thinking about your relationship with the company.”
“The report was absolutely accurate – more accurate than anything I had
seen before.”
“I still refer to the report and use it to help me communicate my abilities to the senior management. I can show them – this is what I am like, this is the sort of role I am good at. It is on paper clearly written.”
“There is a tendency with some employers to make everyone into a generalist. Though you can have a broad range, you cannot do everything equally well. SIMAŽ enables you to recognise your weakness and gives you respect without undermining confidence. It puts you on a more healthy footing.”
“What I got out of it mainly was focus and empowerment, not just information but help. Not just about knowing who you are but about how to handle situations, be more self-aware, make choices. It has given me the tools to start me off on the right path.”
“SIMAŽ takes a holistic approach and gives honest feedback. Other processes analyse and compartmentalise you i.e. less holistic. They really pinpoint you”.
*These quotes were given in confidence. If you would like to speak to someone who has been through the SIMAŠ process, we can pass to you the names of individuals who would be willing to give you their feedback personally. Email us at enquiries@sima.co.uk
